I haven't set foot in the Trop Vegas in over a decade. From all the negatives I've been hearing about it the past few years, my decision was a good one. If they can bring this property up to even mid-level strip property level (i.e. Flamingo, Bally's), I'd be willing to give it another try. But they have a very long way to go. Hooray for them getting the dismal Yung out of there.

The problem for visitors to Vegas who fly in is that you have to rent a car to get to these casinos (unless you want to keep taking cabs, which gets very expensive and leaves you less money for gambling). It's also very difficult to get a cab back to the Strip or downtown from these outlying casinos. Getting around Vegas with a rental car is very difficult if you are not familiar with the streets and layout. It is stressful, which is NOT what you want on your vacation. Also, the driver can't drink, which means he/she misses out on one of the main perks Vegas offers. I would love to play at some of these off-strip casinos and would do so if they provided shuttle service to and from the Strip.
